Palmitoyl-protein thioesterase ABHD10, mitochondrial

Definition:

Acts as an acyl-protein thioesterase that hydrolyzes fatty acids from acylated residues in proteins. Regulates the mitochondrial S-depalmitoylation of the nucleophilic active site residue of peroxiredoxin-5/PRDX5, a key antioxidant protein, therefore modulating mitochondrial antioxidant ability. Also catalyzes the deglucuronidation of mycophenolic acid acyl-glucuronide, an active metabolite of the immunosuppressant drug mycophenolate.
